However, Salud has strange forebodings that turn into couplets. Paco arrives and convinces the young woman to run away with him. Meanwhile, Uncle Sarvaor, Grandmother's brother, appears to tell her that Paco is getting married the next day to a very pretty and very rich paya girl named Carmela. 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗢 𝗦𝗘𝗚𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗢 At Carmela's house and her brother Manuel, her wedding with Paco is celebrated. From the street, Salud, Abuela and Tío Sarvaor watch the dance, animated by a Singer. The young woman decides to enter pretending to be a singer, but Tío Sarvaor enters with her. Upon seeing them, Paco denies knowing them, so Salud, after reproaching him for his forgetfulness, falls to the ground dead. The play closes with the insults that Abuela and Uncle Sarvaor hurl at Paco
